Haha I was simply stating you don't have to have one specific color.

I get what your saying and somewhat agree with you however the rough riders is simply lifting the nickname off a local high high school...pretty original. How much money has been spend on this? In full disclosure I'm in the North Dakota only grouping but I am starting to look at some of the other names as options if we're forced to choose one. I can't believe the listing were left with. So poorly managed. Last summer one of the committee members threw out prairie wolves ....doesn't sound so bad now.

Agreed.

Kfan mocking us....makes sense though.

Internet funny guy...I get it.

Dallas Stars, Lincoln stars....neither of which have the color yellow. I was just curious about your statement, your were stating it as fact that we would have to change our school colors and you were a tad off course. We pretty much have the same colors as the Dallas Stars. The remainder of your previous post made little sense.

Why would you need yellow for North Stars?

Might look kind of funny to the locals. You seem like a nice guy.

So are we going to have a different logo than Red River...but the same name?

Absolutely.

I obviously understand that. But I am from that area so it seems funny to me. As you are most likely not from there I understand your point of view as well. This is simply my point of view.

http://www.smargon.net/nicknames/ Is this right?

Really, I shouldn't have stated that as fact as I was listening to an open conversation between some people and there was 2-3 direct schools mentioned. I should have remembered them.

I like the North Star name a little bit. Yes, it is MN's motto but no one truly pays attention to that (may some old timers ) It is a pretty cool nickname that is currently not used. I know some other GF people are warming up to it however North Dakota is still a strong first. In full disclosure, I do not like the RR idea as our local high school has had that for a long time now, however, if that was chosen it wouldn't be the end of the world for me. I just like ND and NS slightly more.

Not true...I believe there are three other schools with no formal nickname.

Exactly

Couldn't hold back could you?

1. North Dakota 2. North Stars 3. Green Hawks (not sure about this one, maybe Spirit, but that seems to be a full out copy of the Wild. Although many of those nicknames are simply copying from another team. Especially Rough Riders). Edit: cavalry is growing on me. At least it's somewhat unique.

I think you're talking about Jordy B.? He signed to play for some Dub team next year I believe.

1st

Flyers. Leafs.

Yeah, you're completely delusional. Also, back in those days the cap was nothing like it is today. I would say these Hawks are as close as you're going to get to a dynasty in this day and age.

The only person having him top ten (that I have seen) is Button. Recently, I have actually seen him outside the top 32 more often than not

This is the first thing I thought about. Both Shaw and Wolanin are very good and they will be battling for that 6th spot. I've seen it go both ways, either the kid's dad plays him when he shouldn't have won the spot, or the dad is too hard on the kid and the kid sits only due to the perceived perception that could arise. Either way, it's good Berry is there to make the final call on everything. He knows that side of the ice pretty well

1 maybe two years.
